    • Prevents unauthorized individuals from fraudulently using your bank account to send remittances with your money.
    • Verifies that bank account owner’s information matches the sender, reducing the risk of fraudulent access to your account.
  2. Error Reduction
    • Minimizes accidental errors in typing account and routing numbers.
  3. Fund Confirmation
    • Confirms that sufficient funds are available for a transaction – similar to how a credit card works
